In a near future plagued by climate change and severe overpopulation, the right to parenthood is not a given, but instead earned. In order to have a child, loving couple Mia and Aaryan (Elizabeth Olsen and Himesh Patel) must undergo a strange and mysterious seven-day assessment administered by an unusual assessor named Virginia (Alicia Vikander,
Ex Machina). Determined to prove they are worthy of raising a child, the couple's assessment slowly unravels into a psychological nightmare as Virginia employs an increasingly disturbing range of trials and tests that will push them and their relationship to their limits. "Though powered by incredible performances and worldbuilding, what truly leads
The Assessment to have an exceptional final product is its refreshingly original premise"—Isabella Soares,
Collider.
